Nicole Scherzinger has teased fans with a sneak-peak of her new music video.

The footage, which accompanies the track Run, shows the sultry singer as she writhes on the floor wearing a small black dress.

And while the scenes are incredibly emotional and hard-hitting, the songstress still manages to bring an air of sex appeal to the dramatic clip.

The 36-year-old released the shots to E! news only days before the full video is due to go live and explained the meaning behind the song.

She told the entertainment outlet: "The song is called Run basically encouraging people to run from whatever fears are holding them back.

"We all have our own stuff - people, relationships, ourselves, the stuff inside of our mind - that hold us back and make us feel small, make us feel less than, that we can't do it, that we're less then."

She added: "It's running from that and running to something bigger and more positive."

Unfortunately the former X Factor judge didn't give out any clues as to who the song is about meaning we can only guess who inspired it.
